Indeed, it seems it's no longer exported in 2.6.26 :-( I guess all you
can do here is do a copy-and-paste and send email to netdev.

af_rds.c: In function `rds_create':
af_rds.c:419: warning: passing arg 1 of `sk_alloc' makes pointer from integer without a cast
af_rds.c:419: warning: passing arg 3 of `sk_alloc' makes integer from pointer without a cast
af_rds.c:419: warning: passing arg 4 of `sk_alloc' makes pointer from integer without a cast

It seems sk_alloc also needs this &init_net pointer.
